What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Of all the treasure in our chest
2
We love the golden god of war the best
3
Look, look at that little clown
4
Here, look through the binoculars
5
Someone burned his schoolhouse down
6
And he's blinking in the sun
7
He's drying something in the sun
8
Ha! It's an old tea bag!
9
Now he rolls it up
10
Look! He made a cigarette
11
But he's not gonna smoke it yet
12
Maybe he's gonna sell it
13
How much d'you think he'll get?
14
A slice of ham = a long goodbye = 3 days of peace
15
A bar of soap = a can of oil = 10 years of debt
16
A pinch of salt = a week of news = 4 double-A's
17
A plastic bag = a place to hide = one sucker bet
18
I got what you want
19
You got what I need
20
Of all the sterling men of steel
21
We crave the one who'll teach us not to feel
22
Look at the guy selling beer
23
Where the hell did he get it from?
24
He's the King of the Hill
25
He's the bug that survives the bomb
26
See the smirk on his greasy face
27
Handing a bottle to the mortal foe
28
It's not the time to kill
29
Not that he forgets . . .
30
As he takes a crumpled bill
31
And thinks this is better yet
32
A pot for the rain = a pair of shoes = 2 hand grenades
33
A spade for the grave = four lovely eggs = 3 cigarettes
34
A stick of gum = some wood for a fire = 2 table legs
35
A cup of rice = a pint of blood = 1 pound of flesh
36
Line up to buy here
37
Line up to die there
38
Look, look through that window
39
Looks like your sister there
40
In a Chetnik's bed
41
Look, there on the table
42
Looks like she did it for a loaf of bread
43
Shit! She's got a knife!
44
And he's snoring like a pig
45
Is he worth more alive or dead?
46
How much for his boots?
47
How much for his head?
48
Though all the days and all the times
49
We count the coin and stash away the crimes
